You can be like Charles Bronson in the Death Wish movies, he was a conscientious objector during the Korean War  :D

I'm not really sure there is any point in joining. Don't we just get all the news here and on the FB account?

Social media heavily throttles Melvins posts. Most posts reach less than 5% of followers, many posts even less than that. On top of that, it's plain to see that these platforms are in rapid decline. Users are bailing en masse, so it's not a viable way of communicating.

This email list is for people who are interested in hearing directly from the band. We're hoping that it becomes a better alternative for getting the word out about things.

Hmm, i see your point. I think it would be okay perhaps for more casual fans. But i suspect that most of the hardcore fans (of which probably frequent this site or other Melvins dedicated fan sites) would tend to already keep on top of any new releases or forthcoming ventures. Although having said that, i am surprised occasionally when a clear fan of the band isn't aware that something new is out or has been out for a few weeks! Perhaps i'm a bit weird but i just check the sites directly and don't pay attention to news feeds or such to notify me.

Well ... i signed up! I like the idea of news but i hope we don't get spammed too much or email addresses sold off to third parties or whatever it is that those types of folk do with them.
